Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

∵ B is the centroid of ΔVWX

∴A is the mid-point of XV

∴2x + 1 = x + 3

∴2x - x = 3 - 1

∴x = 2

∵BV = 3x + 2

∴BV = 3(2) + 2 = 8

∵B is the centroid of Δ VWX

∴B divides ZV to the ratio 2 : 1 from the vertex V

∴BV = 2/3 ZV

∴[tex]8=\frac{2}{3}ZV[/tex]

∴ [tex]ZV=\frac{3}{2}(8)[/tex]

∴[tex]ZV = \frac{24}{2} =12[/tex]
